Here's a First Look at Union and Fragment Design's Highly Anticipated Air Jordan 1 Collab
After it was confirmed by Union owner Chris Gibbs in a February interview, a first look at the Los Angeles retailer's three-way collaboration with Fragment Design and Jordan Brand has surfaced. Sure to be one of the more coveted sneaker designs of the year, the Fragment Design x Union x Air Jordan 1 High blends the best of both worlds from each brand's respective collaboration on the silhouette. The Hiroshi Fujiwara-led Fragment Design is represented through the white, black and royal blue colorway as well as its signature lightning bolt logo stamp near the heel. At the rubber midsole, Fragment Design's tooling code detailing calls out both Fujiwara and Gibbs.

Somewhat surprisingly, the colorway does not feature mismatched portions like most of Union's other Air Jordan 1s. 'We have the Fragment Design collaboration that's coming later,' Gibbs confirmed in February. Union's Jordan Brand partnership began in 2018 with the launch of a two-sneaker Air Jordan 1 High collection which featured the first appearance of the store's mash-up concept. The duo then issued a follow-up 'I'm Back' colorway in February. As for Fragment Design, 2014 Air Jordan 1 High collaboration was the beginning of a long-term partnership that has included coveted projects with Travis Scott. While the Fragment Design x Union x Air Jordan 1 High is confirmed to be released soon, some of the specifics remain undetermined. While the pair has previously been rumored to release in 2025, the midsole text indicates the collaboration could be destined for a spring 2026 launch. Retail pricing has not been confirmed.
